    The thing about video is that it has everything good. Better engagement and better retention. The huge issue with video and livestreaming is that it doesn’t make a lot of money at all compared to photos, text posts, etc. So it isn’t as much of a surprise to see that Twitch isn’t exactly profitable. Even Meta had to incur costs with their Reels rollout and Tik Tok is still not as profitable yet either.
